FREE W113 Inspection and Purchase Evaluation in LA
« on: October 09, 2020, 21:55:54 »
I looked at 4 different W113s for sale at a dealer yesterday. 
They were sold for $40-45k.  Rust buckets.  Should have sold for $20-25k at the most.

And, I recently witnessed a dealer sold a grey market car with a made up vin plate,  somewhere in southeast. 
Dealer paid $17k for the car, my offer was $15k.  Sold for $40k.  pls don’t ask who/where unless you purchased a lemon recently.

I had an unpleasant conversation with this opinionated, full of attitude archaeologist, calls himself an expert, buys cars in half price and sells them to the cartel.  Sellers Beware.

Sorry for mentioning all these irritating points, however, I want to help support the forum members and protect the newbies.
Please search the forum and educate yourself prior to purchasing a Pagoda.

I’d like to offer free inspection of a Pagoda to any full member of this wonderful forum, in Los Angeles.
I have been following this forum since the beginning; what a wonderful group of people!
